Such fun designs.

What fun designs. Love your first one

Was really annoyed with myself on Friday night, I discovered that the stitching I had done earlier in the day didn't line up with that that I had stitched on Thursday. The problem was that I had started stitching before drawing on all my grid lines (I had the centrelines marked just not the rest), so when I drew on my grid lines I managed to get one half a stitch off and then found my place off the wrong line. So I undid all that I had stitched Friday night. Then on Sunday I stitched it all again (and got it finished - was so mad at myself that I couldn't stitch Saturday!)


Have now started on Choc-a-holic:

Sorry about the . It turned out nicely though!

Bad bad we need to get our fry pans out and have frog legs for dinner.

Annoying little
But it's all looking good now!

What a pain to have to do it all again -- no wonder you didn't feel like stitching for a bit! But Gym Bunny is great

They look great! Sorry about .

I know i'm a bit late, but I love the work up of the windmill. I ordered a stack of charts from Fiona Jude a while back and she sent me a heap of freebies as well and that was on e of them.

I her work as well. I now have the difficult task of deciding which of the 47 designs of hers that I own but have not stitched yet that I'm going to do next...
... do I go back and stitch them in order (so FJ-1001 Gumtree Lane) or do I do FJ-1007 White Cockatoos as its the last one to do in the run from FJ-1006 to FJ-1013 (excluding FJ-1009 Country Sampler as it is one of the few that I don't like) or do I pick another one that is calling loudly or am I very good and pick up Wildflowers again?

Of course before I start another one I have to finish the Stashmas gift I'm working on at the moment, and Choc-a-holic, followed by 'When Pigs Fly' by Margaret Sherry (Christmas present for my aunt), then a couple of Christmas ornaments, the EMS numbers, the hydrangea freebie that I started so I could see what stitching over 1 on 28ct was like, oh and also the last two fractal bookmarks in the series I'm doing

ok thats a very very difficult decision.

I really should get back to doing my campire teddies, they really haven't had much progress on them for a long time now, i discovered the world of HAED and they kinda went out the window, maybe this summer i can get back to them

that is when its not so crazy hot.

yeah...surely its hard to choose among those choices!

But I really would like to see wildflowers again...

I'm a vote for the wild flowers as well!

Wow I did not think one person could have so many on the go projects. You have loads of choices for UFO week.

Well I've finally got my stashmas gift finished and will post it later today, so I've started stitching on a present for my aunt. I'm actually going to stitch this design twice - once as is for me, and for my aunt I've changed the text to:
Another month ends:
All targets met,
All systems working,
All customers satisfied,
All staff eagerly enthusiastic,
All pigs fed and ready to fly!

What it should look like finished:


My progress so far:

I'm actually doing this 3 strands over 2 on a 28ct mottled blue piece of evenweave that I picked up from the craft show last month.

Nice start.

Such a fun design, and your re-wording will make it very personal!

That is going to be adorable Great start!!!!!!
